The "Hail Mary" Election Protection Act

Just in time for football AND election season, Brad at Brad Blog has a great suggestion. I think it speaks for it's self.

LET AMERICA VOTE ACT (EMERGENCY PAPER BALLOT MANDATE OF 2006)

Emergency paper ballots shall be made available at every voting jurisdiction in the United States during the November 7th, 2006 General Election. These paper ballots shall be available in sufficient numbers for optional use by voters who prefer to use them, and by all voters in the event of voting machine failure or unavailability. These paper ballots are not to be provisional ballots, but regular paper ballots that shall be counted immediately upon the close of polls on election night along with all other votes cast by properly registered voters.

Great idea. He says he'll be posting a more "bill-like" verion tomorrow at Brad Blog, and is asking for people to contact their representatives to see if they will sponsor or support such legislation.
